Sylvia Hatchell's return provides boost for veteran UNC
Posted Sep 12, 2014
Things finally seem normal for Sylvia Hatchell and UNC after a year that was anything but. In that time, the Hall of Fame coach was diagnosed with leukemia and missed the season, her freshman-led team pushed all the way to an NCAA regional final in her absence, then star freshman Diamond DeShields abruptly transferred. Now Hatchell is back, along with a roster stocked with talent and experience.
